The rubble pile that has become our government!


I was going to use the word rubbish instead of rubble for the title. Take your pick. Either term would work to describe the mess my/our country now finds itself in. Please take a moment and take a hard look at the graph above. Do you see anything unusual? With only a few more days for the so-called ‘Super Committee’ to come up with some draconian cuts, all the world financial institutions are holding their collective breath. Supposedly, if this bipartisan panel cannot come up with 1.2 trillion in cuts over the next ten years, a series of automatic cuts will kick in. This process, known as sequesterization (sp?), was agreed upon by both sides and is considered to be lawful. No one, however, knows what the consequences of such an action would be.

But, wait a minute! Already members of congress are discussing ways to get around any cuts to the budget. A course that will absolutely spell disaster for America and the reserved status of the dollar. It’s almost as if this august body of men and women have become mentally ill. Any course taken at this time by Washington that does not result in severe cuts to the budget will result in a crash of this country’s monetary system. This is not a guess, it's a fact. Even the GAO will admit as much. The end result could easily spell hyperinflation and a sudden end to life as we American’s have known it.

Is this what’s the leaders of this country want? Is this what you want, Mr. And Mrs. America?
